WiFi Xoom freeze issue after ICS upgrade

[rng1977]

It seems to be getting better, but my Xoom freezes for, what seems to be, no reason at all. I don't know what's causing it. Sometime it's on a home screen, after I've checked my email, or just after sitting for a while. I basically have just stopped using it since the upgrade(Thursday), because of its unreliability.

Is this just mine or are other people having problems with this as well?

I've been having the same problem. Usually it happens when I switch from an app back to the main screen, but I've also seen it happen when I've tried to drop an app icon into place, or uninstall an app. Normally I've just had to wait (less than a minute) for it to reboot, but the last couple of times I've had to a hard re-boot.

I've only had my Xoom since Christmas (2011), and I'm wondering if there's an easy way to revert back to Honeycomb.

Think I found the solution to my problem. Saw a post somewhere else about problems with "Live" wallpapers. I got rid of the one I was using and the problem seems to be gone.

This is so frustrating!

I uninstalled the Live wallpaper that I was using, but my Xoom continues to crash almost every time that it hibernates.

Has anyone discovered a solution yet?

I'm having the same problem! I've deleted every app, and am back to factory defaults and it still crashes every time it hibernates...

I got my update to ICS while traveling in Costa Rica last week. The Xoom has worked fine since. Don't know if it makes a difference, but I don't use live wallpapers in order to maximize battery life.

Since my Xoom downloaded the ICS upgrade, I have had to deal with frequent freezups, often necessitating forced reboots
I performed a complete factory reinstall, hoping it would get me back to Honeycomb, but the reinstall results in installaton of ICS.
I have not used live wallpaper. Wish I had a way to get back to honeycomb.

Same problem here. Factory reset and no apps still have problem but only when logging on to Google. I want honeycomb back. My Xoom is useless and unreliable now. What do we do now?

Please someone HELP. I see these posts but I've missed what to do to correct it. My Xoom will freeze after it goes into hybernation also. What are we supposed to do?

Mine is a bit wonky at times too. It was pretty stable on Honeycomb, but it 'feels' like the battery drains faster too on ICS. ICS looks amazing on the tablet, I just wish it didn't get bogged down from time-to-time. Hopefully there's an update that fixes this.

I temporarily fixed this by checking don't Keep Activities in Developper Options, through the Settings menu. Waiting on a permanent fix...
